Ok folks... I'm really getting a mental block here.

Isn't the binding to an instance variable automatic when declared for a
WOtextField?

I have a login panel I've created where I check the user name and password,
but so far I can't get it working.  I've tried binding variables to the
component.  I've tried to the session.  I've tried to an object I call User
which is in an instance named currentUser.

The component for the login panel has a form in it.  When I hit the submit
button (an image) it calls my action in the component.

The problem is it seems the variabled bound do not return any results.
They are always empty or nil.

Also, when the login fails, I simply return null for the page in the action
handler because I want to stay on the same page.

The other problem is that I want the data entered into the form variables
to stay there.  Yet, it seems to get cleared out.

I know I just have a mental block... and I've been over and over the docs
to look for examples, but can't seem to locate any.

I basically want a login panel to work the way one would expect.  If login
unsuccessful, just stay on the same page and keep the username typed in
while ditching the password data.

Anyone got any pointers to some good examples in the docs or examples?

That cookbook idea is looking better and better.

Thanks for any pointers.
